i was recently on the plane, im not sure if that is anything to do with it. but my right ear seems clogged. i cant pop it or anything, it kinda hurts too. Is it like an ear rupture or ear infection or something? what should i do? It hurts, and i went swimming today but i didnt go under because of my ear. but i was in hollywood i was swimming for like 10 days. but my ear didnt start to hurt untill the other day.. when i got back kinda. And i can hear out of it, but not as clear as my left. and i can like hear myself breath. sorry if this is confusing. i just really need help.
I don't know if you tried this, but in order to get your ear to "pop" (and thus unclog) is to take a breath, plug your nose, close your mouth and blow, trying to pop your ears and sort of swallowing at the same time. Do that a couple of times once in a while, and your ear should unclog. If it has been going on for a long time though, I would definetly see a doctor. [ MAK's advice column | Ask MAK A Question ]

Have you been cleaning your ear?
If it hurts then you need to go to the doctors and get you some antibioctics (I hope that's spelled right but it's pronounced as ANTI-BYE-AW-DICTS). It's just some yummy medicine that you take and it'll just go right away.
If you can't hear and you cleaned out your ear, there could be some 'things' clogged insde your ear and you just go to the doctors and ask them if they can use THE SINGE or THE EAR SINGE on you. (unless they do something else)
Don't worry, it's like like a water gun, it looks like a needle but they just fill it up with water and they just sqirt into your ear (minus the needle part) like a water gun.
DON'T just get a water gun and start squirting into your ear!
Doctors look into your ear with a thing and shoot it at specific angles to remove..the 'thing'..
After that, you'll feel much better. And don't worry, doctors are your friends =]
haleys411 answered Tuesday August 7 2007, 11:19 pm: my brother just had the same thing, or atleast i think....he had 'swimmers ear' which has to do with water from swiming getting up in your ear and making it hurt really bad...you should go to the doctors. its also possible that the plane had to do with it cus of the pressure change, which will make your ear like that, but that wouldnt have lasted more than a day, or atleast i dont think. good luck [ haleys411's advice column | Ask haleys411 A Question ]
